Airspy HF+ discovery not detected (SOLVED)

[f4bpp]

Hi Alexandre,
I've just received my Airspy HF+ discovery SDR receiver. I've installed all the drivers (included soapy sdr module airspy). The device is well recognized by GQRX but not by SR++.
I select Airspy on the top dropdown menu but in the dropdown menus just below, the lists are empty.
Do I miss something ?
I'm using the last night build for Ubuntu Jamy.

Thanks for help.

David.

it should be Airspy HF+ in sources rather than just Airspy, do you have have airspyhf and libairspyhf1 installed?

also its worth rebooting after installing, there should be udev rules to allow local user access.

GQRX detect the SDR as AirspyHF device and the device string is "aispyhf=0". The input rate is set to 768000 and the sample rate to 768.000 ksps.

Both airspyhf and libairspyhf1 are installed and there is no Airspy HF+ in the menu. About the udev rules, I know how it works but I don't know the rules to add to make it work.

does running airspyhf_info return anything?

if it picks it up without needing sudo then that side of it is ok.

The rules 52-airspyhf.rules is ok :
ATTR{idVendor}=="03eb", ATTR{idProduct}=="800c", SYMLINK+="airspyhf-%k", MODE="660", GROUP="plugdev"

and airspyhf_info without sudo return that :
S/N: 0x3652975D4ADE398D

not sure whats up then, i set up 22.04 in a virtual machine only last week without issue.
i'm sure Alexandre will know when he's back online.

also there is a newer firmware for it to unlock 912 kS/s bandwidth.

from mine

user@xfce:~$ airspyhf_info

Thanks starvald. I've updated mine in case of...

AirSpy HF library version: 1.7.1

S/N: 0x3652975D4ADE398D
Part ID: 0x00000002
Firmware Version: R3.0.7-CD
Available sample rates: 912 kS/s 768 kS/s 456 kS/s 384 kS/s 256 kS/s 192 kS/s

But SDR++ still don't detect anything.

What is the version of SDR++ you are using ? Mine is nightly build for Ubuntu Jamy.

[starvald]

i installed sdrpp from the ubuntu repos v1.1.0

[starvald]

it should be enabled by default but check the module is added in the sdrpp module manager.

Thank's Alexandre. Problem solved. I have to remove Airspy Source then add AispyHF Source. I'm happy !
